  • Allowed managers to have visibility into salesperson pipelines with far less communication and time spent by all.
  • Allowed more predicative information on where the business is from a pipeline perspective so we can predict future business and resource requirements.
  • Allowed us to manage our customer support more effectively with less staff and allows cases and information to be passed from one staff member to another easily.

  • One of the most positive things I find when working with my clients on Sage CRM is in their development or implementation of their process. It helps them better define it and then work on it. Ultimately making them more efficient with a higher ROI.
  • If Sage CRM is not bought in by the entire team, the ROI will be much lower and possibly even result in failure. They may not remove the system but they may not use it to its full potential. The buy in needs to be implemented by management, team leaders, and their Sage partner to aid in the success of the solution.
  • Better customer service is a big one that I see as a positive ROI. It is so much more efficient to be able to pick up the phone and make a call to a client or prospect when you can visually see all the communications that have gone on with that client. You are more informed and therefore better equipped to fulfill your clients needs, whatever they are.

  • Increased productivity. My salespeople use it mostly as a task management tool.
  • Better Customer Service. This one definitely applies because it keeps reminders for my employees to keep in touch with their existing customer.
  • Frustration. This is a negative but it's mostly our fault. We let the database get so diluted with bad and old leads that it's not hard to sort through everything. Sage has not been very helpful in customer support on this issue.

  • Lead and opportunity generation is simple and efficient
  • Trying to connect it to Sage 100 caused massive issues which wiped out contacts. We decided afterwards never to link them up again even if Sage claimed they "fixed" the issues.
  • Tracking current opportunities and having weekly meetings around those using the CRM has increased focus on the leads/opportunities.

  • It is very affordable in pricing, compared to competitors
  • Lead management and convertion into prospects is also a very easy process
  • Lead capture from web pages should be available, and better ways to capture leads from tradeshows by uploading directly from scanned business cards

Reasons For Sage CRM

  • Sage does well with the customer service aspect of our business. Knowing what was discussed at a previous meeting with a client helps tremendously with building rapport with those clients.
  • Efficiency is built into Sage because at the tip of your finger you have access to all client information.

  • SAGE CRM has improved both our overall customer service in this particular area, but helping to automate email notifications, resulting in less client chasing of a case and also giving the client visibility on who is dealing with their case or issue and the expected time-scale for completion.
  • The ability to do self service and raise a case on our website enhanced our customer service image, but more importantly meant that clients completed all the key details when filling in a request. So. whilst clients liked the 24 X & capability to log a case, once we deal with it, we often has a lot more useful information and were many times able to close the case quicker.
  • In addition, maintaining the focus on Customer Service, the ability to create Solutions with common fixes has meant that first line staff can search for a Solution first, closing the case quicker before the need in many cases to escalate to a 2nd Line consultant. The best example of this is that I myself had a Customer Call one Christmas Boxing Day (26th Dec.), a Bank Holiday in the UK, but client had my mobile. Luckily, although, I was at my in-laws, I could dial onto SAGE CRM, then checked for a solution and was able to help the customer restart their own 24 x 7 service.

  • It's used to quickly assess if a consultant is between engagements, coming to the end of an engagement, etc. which allows for quicker turnaround on placements.
  • It's used for client management; contacts can be quickly added/deleted as contacts change; the sales reps can be quickly accessed if needed to address client needs or concerns.
